@momofsenior1 What did you think of the article by Paul Tough in the NY Times on 9/10? Not sure if I can link to it here, but I will try: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/09/10/magazine/college-admissions-paul-tough.html
Trinity College, though no longer need-blind, is “is committed to meeting 100% of the demonstrated financial need of any admitted student.” However, finances sometimes outweigh merit in admissions decisions at Trinity when the school is trying to meet tuition targets. Not directly relevant to the “need-blind” discussion above, but I think interesting nonetheless.
